Oshawa Accessibility Advisory Committee (O.A.A.C.) Proposed 2017 Budget Submission Justification
Utilizing the Council approved 2013-2017 Accessibility Plan, the following proposed 2017 budget has been created:
Office Materials & Supply As per 2016, a sum of $300 is requested to cover the cost of office supplies, the production of orientation manuals for new O.A.A.C. members in 2017.
Food A sum of $1250 is requested to provide drinks at meetings, refreshments at the annual Special Council Meeting to discuss accessibility and for a year end celebration in 2017. Based on the work plan, it is estimated that the same number of meetings will be held in 2017 as in 2016.
Advertising Legislation requires consultation with the public (people with disabilities) so the amount budgeted for 2017 is increased to $1500 to build awareness and obtain feedback from the public regarding the development of a new mandated accessibility plan for 2018-2021.
Public Relations Based on the 2013-2017 Accessibility Plan, a sum of $2000 is allocated for sponsoring an Accessibility Awareness Night at the General Motors Centre and related community promotional events.
Professional and Technical Services The budget request for 2017 remains the same as 2016 ($3000) despite the fact that approximately $600 will be spent in 2016. This account covers corporate requests for accommodations/supports (i.e. American Sign Language interpreters) and the O.A.A.C. fees for remote participation. In addition, new members to the O.A.A.C. are appointed each year and accommodation services may be required on a regular basis.

Car or Mileage Allowance The car or mileage allowance account is $100 to cover transportation costs related to seminars and training for O.A.A.C. members in 2017.
Seminars & Training As per 2016, a sum of $500 is requested for seminars and training of O.A.A.C. members in 2017.
Contracted Services As per 2016, a sum of $300 is allocated to this category for 2017. This line item is to cover the cost of transportation costs for members requiring transportation as per the Advisory Committeets policy and procedures.
